Loved by Customers
Using Autodata, the best manual on the market today, every service is conducted according to the manufacturer’s instructions specific to each make and model.
However, we also believe in stepping back and looking at the bigger picture; as we get to know you, your vehicle and your driving habits, we’ll provide bespoke recommendations, saving you from spending money when you don’t really need to. This gives you more control and means that your car is being serviced according to actual usage, rather than just to put cash in our till!
Attention To Details
We want to make your life easier, so we’ll happily arrange to collect your car for you or drop you back home or to work if you drive it to us – and we have a courtesy car and van for your use if required (subject to availability). We also give every vehicle a complimentary wash and vac before we return it – how’s that for service?!
Our garage is conveniently located for customers in the Oldham, Manchester, Huddersfield and Tameside areas; for more information or to book your vehicle’s annual service, contact us
CAR AIR CONDITIONING SERVICING
AND RE-GASSING/RECHARGING
The majority of modern cars and vans in use on UK roads today have an in-built air conditioning system – and like every other part of your car, it needs regular maintenance to ensure it’s working efficiently and effectively.
It’s worth noting that your air conditioning system isn’t one of the elements included in your annual car service, and with most manufacturers recommending a re-gas every 2 years, it’s important that you keep a check on the time elapsed since your last aircon service. If you’ve never had one, and you’ve had your car for more than a couple of years, it’s probably time to get it booked in!
During a car air conditioning service, the first thing our experienced team will do is remove and replace your pollen filters – this will keep the interior of your car smelling fresher and ensure that the filter is doing its job properly. New filters will reduce bacteria, improve airflow and minimise the risk of health conditions associated with dirty or blocked equipment.
Lubrication is also important to keep your air-con running to the highest standards, so we’ll take care of this for you too. Most importantly, we’ll replenish your system with fresh gas to the manufacturer’s recommended levels – this improves the efficiency of the system and your vehicle’s overall performance.
For more information about improving your air conditioning system and re-gassing, call us or pop down to visit us at our premises in Chadderton, Oldham – we’re also within easy reach from Huddersfield, Manchester and Tameside.
